MOTH FASCINATION

Spotted this moth on my usual walk the other morning and he reminded me of similar moths we used to get in Darwin. They fascinated me and I was always trying to get photos of them but the equipment I had back then wouldn't do the job.  I think it left me with a lifelong interest in bugs and so forth which is why, I guess, this blog seems to have more insects than flowers of late.  I searched for a while to see if I could find a name for this specimen but must not have been looking in the right places.  I shall call him Cecil Laceywing-Green III.
